Mathematicians tool box: guess check and improve.

Solve: well I thought he needed to pull out three shirts but what if they were all white? So I added one to make sure there would defiantly be a blue T-shirts.

Summary: This could be a hard question but with practice it becomes easy.

Predict: I predict this will be about problem solving + all 4 operations.

Solve: I started with 8 minus 1 because it was the only question completely written. the answer is 7 so I put 7 in the answer box. Then it says 3 + ? = 7 I know that 3+4 = 7 so I put 4 in the blank box. Then it said ?-1 =1 in knew that 2-1=1 so I put 2 in the blank box. Now it says ?-2=3. I knew 5-2=3 so I put 5 in the blank box. Last it said 5+?=8. I know that 5+3 = 8 so I put 3 in the blank box.

Summery: This question can be time consuming but after a while it gets easier.
